every bill that we've seen since the election, be it the fiscal cliff, be it a package for hurricane sandy, we've seen that divide. they're facing their own identity crisis. i think the story of this past week, i think this president's second term will be telling in terms of who democrats want to be. do they want to be a party that's a center-left party close to wall street or more populist party, the party of rahm emanuel and the dlc or the party of sharon brown and elizabeth warren? president obama has papered over that for the last four years. we're talking about entitlements, medicare, those kinds of things now. it's going to be hard to paper over that. they have to decide who they are, too. are they a party that wants to raise the eligibility age for medicare or not? that's going to be a real tell in the second term. >> legacy watch. at this point, his legacy the defined by what? how does he avoid it being defined by the partisan battles of washington? >> part of the problem with the legacy watch is we're looking at it now but we don't know the legacy for about another five, ten years
